wicked wreath


This is a picture of a wreath that was hung by a resident in a Colorado subdivision in Pagosa Springs. Bob Kearns, president of the Loma Linda Homeowners Assn, said that some residents had complained and that some residents thought it was a "symbol of Satan." Kearns ordered the homeowners committee to require the homeowner, Lisa Jensen, to remove the wreath. When the committee refused, Kearns fired all five members. Kearns threatened to fine Jensen $25 a day for as long as the wreath is up. Apparently it was viewed as an anti-war wreath. Peace and goodwill toward men, indeed!!! The subdivision's rules say "no signs, billboards, or advertising is permitted without the consent of the architectural control committee."
The follow-up to this is that the homeowners association has decided that the wreath does not pose a threat to our national security and will let Jensen keep the wreath up. Merry Christmas. Next up: Santa is a threat because he looks like a member of al-Qaeda.
